eating room, and distribution. All revisions of circulars and bulletins in effect 

 in the branch are carried through by this section. 



3. Uniforms. There are approximately 1,500 approved personnel in uniform on 

 the staff of this Department including seasonal Parks staff. A continuous 

 record is kept of each individual's uniform account which was checked 

 against requisitions for uniform items, and requisitions were approved accord- 

 ing to scale of issue. Included in the estimates for the coming fiscal year must 

 be an accurate estimate of funds required for the uniform programme. 



4. Records. Records pertinent to all Crown Lands of the Province are housed in 

 Records Office. Assembly, indexing and classification of all incoming corres- 

 pondence, compiling of new files and distribution to the offices in which 

 officials required any particular files, are the main responsibilities of this 

 office. An average of 425 files are on charge in a given day. Every new 

 letter pertaining to any of 308,000 files is recorded, sent to the pertinent 

 offices for handling and finally added to the proper file for record. During 

 the current fiscal year, record files up to and including all plans and surveys 

 to the end of 1924 were microfilmed. 



5. Boat Licensing. This Subsection is responsible through the Federal Depart- 

 ment of Transport for the processing of applications for licences for all Depart- 

 ment boats. Some marine units of the Department require only a licence 

 number, and others require registration showing home port, tonnage, dimen- 

 sions, etc., depending on the specifications of the marine unit in question. 

 Specifications of the boats supplied to this section were used to prepare the 

 necessary applications for licences. 



6. Special Assignments. Because of the nature of this work, there is almost a 

 daily demand for services where immediate action and varied organization 

 is required.
